Sweep Streets Like... 5


Inspired by Dr.King

If by some Happenstance Fate makes you a Street Sweeper, Sweep Streets Like...

Honest Abe, Honestly dropping dimes on the Oppressors, Sweep Streets Like Thoth Trismegistus bedazzling the Souls with Emeralds Of Light, or Hermes Thrice The Greatest Ascending to Realms of Novelty and Hill Tops of Nirvana, Sweep Streets Like Simo'n Boli'var and Jose' de San Martin raising the Sword Of Liberation to Free it's people and Bestow upon them the Divine Right Of Self Governance, Sweep Streets like King Alfred The Great mounting himself on the White Horse Of Destiny, For he knew the Hour had come, and so he Rode Valiantly to Vanquish the Colonizers and Rise Upright into the Pages of History and gain his Annointing as the Unlikely Hero who saved England from Tyranny, Sweep Streets Like John Henry breaking the Will Of The Tempest by his Crushing Blows Of Determination, and if you can't find the Strength or Inspiration to move Forth and Give It Your All, I say Dig Deep within and search the Uncharted Territories Of Your Heart. Sweep Streets Like William Blake and his Robust Passions for the Arts, fueling his Soul with Fire by the Flaming Darts of Hatred and Criticism, Sweep Streets Like St. Michael delivering the Death Blow to it's Lesser Nature and Rising unto it's True Power, the Greater. Sweep Streets Like Br'er Rabbit using it's Wits to Outwit the Outwitting fools of Slavery, or Pythagoras reciting Hymns Of Salvation for the Eternal Soul, or Cleopatra standing and Scintillating in her Light Of Beauty, or Joan Of Arc Heeding the call of Divine Authority and Leading France to the Hills Of Prominence. In whatever endeavor one undertakes one must exaust every fiber and every chord of Passion within there very Soul, and if that Undertaking leads you to be The Street Sweeper, Sweep Streets Like Hercules capturing the Bolt Of Lightning and harnessing the Power for the Greater Good, or Bellerophon capturing the Winged Pegasus and Riding Off into the Halls Of Legendry, or Odysseus the Trickster Hero Blazing Up High the Sword Of Virtue, or Samson claiming his Divinity and Harnessing the Power From The Sun and bringing Heaven to Earth. In whatever you do, always strive for the best, Give it your all, Never Stop Believing, and know all that One needs, is never too far. GOD BLESS
